The proper way to get bucked off

1. Ensure that you have an audience.There is absolutely no point in being decked by your horse unless there are oh,say a hundred people around to watch.This way you will have made them feel better about their own inadequacies and you won`t have to go into tedious detail explaining to everyone you know exactly how it happened;it is considered good form if at least one of the audience members is either

Someone you admire and want to impress on

Someone you despise and don`t want to give any ammo to, or

Someone you have the hots for and want to impress, or

Your best friend who will have no compund in falling over, laughing and pointing

2. Try to be spectacular. I mean,anyone can just get bucked off and land on their backside can`t they? You want to try to make this „the decking to end all deckings.“ The Titanic of buck,you get the picture. Now, for this you will need the following

An extremely acrobatic horse- you want one of those twisty-turny jobbies last seen at the National Rodeo Championship

A supple back- you should practice somersaults, pirouettes and handstands at home

A helmet- see, i can be sensible!!!

3. It is best if this buck comes at a time when the audience is watching you, but no one is prepared for what is to come. During a Dressage test is good. Your horse should be working nicely, giving no indication that you are about to become „the person who learned to fly.“ Of course, experts at this will point fall swishing, the ears twitching back, and the tension around the nostrils, but they are show offs and should be ignored. To the uninitiated, this will look like a dramatic performance which you and your horse have practiced at home.

4. When the horse leaves the ground and launch you into the air like a cannonball, it is far more gratifying for the crowd if you can let out a blood – curling yell. Kind of like William Wallace when they cut his, uhm, thingies off. Practice this at home. When the local police knock on your door asking if you are keeping a wild cougar in your back yard, you will know that you have it right.

5. You should try to stay elevated as long as possible. The longer the better. If your arms and legs fly in impossible directions, as if you were a rug doll, you will achieve additional marks for artistic impression

6. When you land, try to do so with a thud! The kind of dull kind that you hear when you drop a melon from a great height. Try not to go splat – it puts the audience off their hamburgers

7. Lie immobile for a while as your horse runs off into the distance. After a suitable time raise your head and groan: „you b*****d!!“

The Proper Procedure for Being Bucked Off

You know you are a Horse-A-Holic when:

...you were driving to the grocery store and you freaked when you didn't see the trailer behind you. ...you have ever used perfume on your horse. ...you consider belt buckles and spurs jewelry.

...you spend more hours at the barn than at work....your dog drinks out of a bucket rather than a bowl. ...your kids shop at Tractor Supply Co.(or any horsey store)

...you put your coat on the floor because the coat hanger is full of bridles and halters. ...you think high-heels are cowboy boots. ...when you think strapless is the kind of spurs where you push them onto your boot.

...you get pizza delivered to the barn more often than your house. ...the perfect getaway is a new trail ride

Horse Stimulus Package

This is hilarious.................

Mr. President,

.... it has come to my attention that you're having some challenges with the economy. If I understand things correctly, we're in a recession, consumer confidence and spending is down, credit is tight, investors are spooked, we need renewable energy, and health care costs are through the roof. Trillions of dollars, not to mention our future, are at stake.

Mr. President,

I'm just a rancher, but I think I have a solution.

....................Give every American a horse.

My proposal may not make sense to you at first, but let me give you a little background. First of all, horses in the U.S. are a multi-billion dollar industry, and that's just at my house. I suggest you have your economic advisers do a little research on the spending around horse ownership. You'd be surprised, Mr. President.

Start by visiting the tack and clothing retailers like State Line or Dover . Look at the variety of goods available there. Now take into account that every horse owner, especially if it's a woman, is buying not just one or two, but tons of these items.. Believe me.

So my thinking is that if you give every American a horse, starting when they reach the horse-receptive age of 10, you're going to do two things: boost consumer confidence and boost spending. Immediately. Horses make us feel good, and once Americans all own horses (at the government's expense, of course), they will all logically fall into the pattern that every horse owner succumbs to: accessorizing.

For starters, we need horse-care implements like buckets and muck rakes, hoof picks and curry combs. And we need at least basic tack, halter, lead-line, saddle, saddle pad, bridle and bit. But then the fun begins.

And that's just the clothing for the horse. Don't get me started on the clothing for the rider, even if he or she doesn't show. Since most Americans don't have a basic riding wardrobe, the stores would be swamped for jeans, boots, breeches, t-shirts, dozens of pairs of cute boot socks, helmets, and SO MUCH MORE!! Tell the retailers to get ready. It'll be Christmas all year long!

Now let's talk about support industries.. In addition to the usual veterinarian and farrier expenditures, people also give their horses chiropractic, massage and acupuncture, not to mention buying more beauty products for their horses than they do for themselves. All those professions and industries will benefit. And of course there will be a big spike in hay and grain demand, so the farmers will be happy too.

You see, that's the secret to jump-starting consumer spending through my stimulus package. People will spend money on their horses when they won't spend money on anything else.

But, your advisers might say, there's a catch. Aren't we paying the price, in global warming, of the large number of livestock animals we currently have? They produce all that methane!

Ah, Mr. President, here's the real beauty of this idea. When you introduce the Methane-Assisted Natural Unrefined Renewable Energy plan (M.A.N.U.R.E.), you'll be a hero for coming up with an alternative, renewable, home-grown source of clean energy. Just challenge the energy gurus to come up with a methane gas collection system that can harness all the natural resources produced by all those horses to power our cities. Talk about shovel ready-projects: M.A.N.U.R.E. fits the bill!

And you keep stressing how we need new industries for investment; well, under the M.A.N.U.R.E. plan you can sell Petroleum Offset Opportunity units to investors. By buying these units, investors can help us gradually convert from a petroleum-based economy to one based on horse P.O.O.

Health care costs will go down, too, as everyone cares for their horses. You can give tax credits based on the amount of time people spend working, riding and hanging out with their horses, which will automatically make them healthier. (Don't tell the docs, but most horse owners already get their own basic health care from their vet.)

One more thing: everyone is annoyed by these corporate CEOs and their big bonuses in a down economy. So give the executives, say, one horse for every $100,000 of bonus money they've received. Those bonuses will be plowed back into the economy in no time.

Finally, because you, Mrs. O, and the girls are such role models, you can encourage us all by getting a pony for Sasha and Malia. It will teach them responsibility, help the First Lady plow the garden, and as a bonus: free fertilizer for the Rose Garden.

Give me food and drink; and care for me. And when the day's work is done, shelter me. Give me a clean bed and leave me not too small a place in the stable. Talk to me, for your voice often takes the place of reins. Be good to me and I shall serve you more gladly and love you.

Horse... if God made anything more beautiful, he kept it for himself.

Horseback riding is life, the rest is just details.

Horses are the dolphins of the plains, the spirits of the wind; yet we sit astride them for the sake of being well-groomed, whereas they could have all the desire in the world to bolt, but instead, they adjust their speed and grace, only to please us, never to displease. - Lauren Salerno

Horses can't talk, but they can speak if you listen.

Horses give us the wings we lack.

How do you catch a loose horse? Make a noise like a carrot. - British Cavalry joke

How to ride a horse: Step One - Mount the horse. Step Two - Stay mounted.

I have often been asked why do I like horses so much. Look into one's eyes. There you will see generations of horses who have served the humans for thousands of years faithfully for nothing in return. Beaten horses, starved hoses, horses who no longer possess a spirit. They deserve to be loved and respected as much as humanly possible. Let them run free again. Let them no longer be a faithful beasts, but embrace them as you would a dear friend, for that is what they are.

I have seen things so beautiful, that they have brought tears to my eyes. Yet, none of them can match the gracefulness and beauty of a horse running free.

I live in a house, but my home is in the stable.

If you want a stable friendship, get a horse.

It excites me that no matter how much machinery replaces the horse, the work it can do is still measured in horsepower.....even in this space age. And although a riding horse often weighs half a ton, and a big drafter a full ton, either can be led about by a piece of string if he has been wisely trained. This to me is a constant source of wonder, and challenge. - Marguret Henry

Life is short. Hug your horse.

Love means attention, which means looking after the things we love. We call this stable management. - George H. Morris

Nothing is more sacred as the bond between a horse and a rider. No other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on, because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, and the very existence dies also. - Stephanie M Thorn

Nothing moves me more - when on the way to fetching in my mare in the morning - than the sound of her neighing to me as I open the gate.

Who among us has not as a child asked Santa Clause to bring us a pony on Christmas day?

Whoever said money can't buy happiness didn't know where to buy a horse.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink," is an old saying that is not exactly true, because anybody that's ever been around horses would know if the horse didn't want to go to water then it wouldn't.

You cannot train a horse with shouts and expect it to obey a whisper. - Dagobert D. Runes
